IMPORTANT: Begin your proposal with “SECURITY SENSEI PODCAST” so I know you read the entire posting. I am seeking an affordable, experienced podcast professional to manage specific operational aspects of my upcoming Ask The Security Sensei podcast. The concept, branding, professional studio, episode topics, and video editing are already complete. Creativity and content development are my strengths; organization, publishing workflows, and behind-the-scenes management are where I need help. This is a long-term opportunity for the right person. The goal is to establish a dependable system that keeps every full episode, short-form video, and outreach task organized, accurate, and on schedule without requiring me to repeatedly ask for status updates. We will work closely during onboarding so you understand the podcast concept, episode format, show notes, YouTube descriptions, publishing standards, calls-to-action, and overall brand. Once the workflow is established, you will independently manage the responsibilities below. About Ask The Security Sensei: Hosted by security expert and inventor Jordan Frankel, Ask The Security Sensei combines decades of real-world security experience with street smarts forged in 1980s New York's underworld. Growing up around wiseguys and whispers taught Jordan that understanding how criminals think is often the first step in stopping them. The podcast brings together people who rarely, if ever, sit at the same table— convicted felons, law enforcement professionals, security experts, and industry leaders — for candid discussions about burglary prevention, commercial security, personal safety, and today’s security products. Responsibilities: Full-Episode Publishing: • Maintain an organized publishing schedule. • Upload and schedule completed episodes in Podbean and YouTube; distribute them through Podbean to Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Amazon Music, and other supported platforms. • Prepare and finalize show notes, YouTube descriptions, titles, tags, categories, playlists, links, and calls-to-action. • Apply supplied thumbnails, verify all episode information, and perform a final quality-control review before publication. Short-Form Publishing For each full-length episode, I will provide three (3) to five (5) fully edited, ready-to-publish short-form videos. • Upload each short to YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels, Facebook Reels, and TikTok when applicable. • Create platform-appropriate titles where applicable, plus captions, descriptions, hashtags, links, and calls-to-action. • Schedule, publish, and verify each short on every applicable platform. Booking Me as a Guest on Other Podcasts • Research established podcasts that fit the Ask The Security Sensei audience and maintain a target list for my approval. • Write personalized pitches and manage follow-ups, interview scheduling, briefing information, and booking status. • Secure opportunities for Jordan Frankel to appear as a guest on other podcasts. What I Will Provide: • Final edited full-length episodes and three (3) to five (5) edited Shorts/Reels per episode. • Episode titles, thumbnails, links, resources, calls-to-action, and ongoing direction. Compensation: Podcast Publishing Compensation: • $175.00 per completed podcast episode. Payment is per episode, not a monthly retainer. Guest Appearance Booking Commission: You may also earn performance-based commissions for booking me as a guest on approved podcasts. Commission is paid only when you directly secure the opportunity, I approve the podcast before outreach, the interview is completed, and the episode is publicly published and live. No commission is paid for cancelled or unpublished interviews, unapproved outreach, existing relationships, or opportunities I secure independently. For video podcasts, commission is based on the average YouTube views of the last 10 full-length podcast episodes. Shorts, clips, trailers, and promotional videos do not count. Average Views (Last 10 Full Episodes) Commission 25,000+ $100 125,000+ $250 350,000+ $400 500,000+ $500 1,000,000+ $1,000 Commission is determined by the show’s average views at the time the booking is secured. Subscriber count may be reviewed only as a secondary reference. Organization and Accountability: Create and maintain a shared Google Sheet, Airtable, Trello board, or similar system showing publishing schedules, Shorts/Reels, outreach, follow-ups, interview dates, completed tasks, pending tasks, and upcoming deadlines. I must be able to review the project status at any time without requesting updates. Qualifications and Communication: • Must be based in the United States and available for occasional phone calls during normal Eastern Time business hours. • Normally respond to emails or messages within one business day. • Previous podcast-management experience with strong organization, written communication, attention to detail, and project-management skills. • Experience with Podbean, YouTube Studio, Instagram, Meta Business Suite, TikTok, Google Docs, Microsoft Word, and Google Drive or a similar platform. • The ideal candidate should be comfortable learning the podcast’s voice and applying it consistently across show notes, descriptions, captions, metadata, and outreach messages. Additional Expectations AI may assist with routine drafting, but all work must be reviewed, edited, and fact-checked. All work becomes the property of Ask The Security Sensei upon payment, and all unpublished materials and business information must remain confidential. Additional responsibilities and compensation opportunities may become available as the podcast grows. To Apply: 1. Briefly summarize your podcast-management experience. 2. Describe any experience booking clients as guests on other podcasts. 3. Provide examples of podcasts you have managed or supported, if available. 4. State your typical turnaround time and fixed price per completed episode. 5. Describe the workflow or project-management system you recommend. Please apply only if you are comfortable handling both publishing responsibilities and the separate task of booking me as a guest on other podcasts.
